Psychological contract is an employee's subjective expectations of what the employee owes the employer and what the employer owes the employee. These expectations are predicted to change over time. Psychological contract includes sub-component contracts of short-term monetary transactional contracts and longer-term relational contracts such as organizational loyalty. The problem this study addressed is it was unknown at what point during length of employment academic faculty member psychological contract constructs begin to change. The purpose of this quantitative study was to examine academic faculty member psychological contract content as it changes with length of employment. This study did not place restriction on participant academic discipline or short-term restriction on length of employment. Four universities and five community colleges in Washington State, Oregon, and Idaho participated in this electronic e-mail study. A multiple linear regression analysis was used to test hypotheses. Results suggested statistical significance (R2 = .146, F(3, 89) = 2.881, p < 0.05) for transactional psychological contract at the less than one year length of employment period but results were inconclusive based on Beta weight (beta = --.137, p = n.s). Results suggested statistical significance for relational psychological contract with several length of employment periods with the most significant being length of employment five years or greater ( R2 = 0.93 F(4, 88) = 53.678, p < 0.05). It was concluded that academic faculty member psychological contract is impacted by length of employment. Recommendations for further research include longitudinal studies, qualitative studies, studying turnover rates, and to study universities and colleges separately.
